Phonte – “The Good Fight” (Video)

Phonte drops a brand new video directed by Kenneth Price for “The Good Fight” which is one of my favorite songs to bang out on the radio show.  Not only is the subject matter relevant to the times right now, but the production on the track from 9th Wonder snaps too. Phontigallo’s ‘Charity Starts At Home” album was one of our picks for “Best Hip Hop Album Of 2011” & the North Carolina emcee, singer, songwriter, & part-time comedian is keeping the videos coming in 2012 from this incredibly dope album….

Cutlass Reid & 9thmatic – ‘Eviction Notice’ (Video)


Mannnnnnnn North Carolina is churning out some of the best quality hip hop right now.  I’m not too familiar with Cutlass Reid but I do believe he was at one time working with VA producer Nottz in a group called D.M.P.   I’m definitely feeling this joint right here & especially because I also dig hearing 9th Wonder rhyme under his alter ego ‘9thMatic’.  Many of these producers like Nottz, Focus…, Hi-Tek, & others are rapping waaaay better than the artists in the mainstream. This joint ‘Eviction Notice’ will appear on Cutlass Reid’s upcoming mixtape called ‘One Day At A Time’ due Tuesday. Check out some behind the scenes footage under the hood….
